Why wouldn't I do a 180 after that playoff game?
It answered a lot of questions about Alex.
Just as that 2010 abortion at Arrowhead told us everything we needed to know about Cassel, the same is true of Alex.

We should slow that roll right about now.
Let's place some context into this conversation:
1) We all knew this D was suspect vs. legit QB's going in to this game. We knew our fearless D coordinator was suspect. We knew our pass rush was suspect with so many lingering injuries.
For a 2nd year QB (I don't care who he is. Brady and Payed-a-ton weren't masterful QB's in year 2) to completely rip us and score nearly a 40 burger on us in one half tells us more about our D than it does about Luck.
2) The Colts were CONSISTENTLY poor in the 1st half. They gave up nearly a record number of pts in the 1st half this year. Not just us, the Colts were down by 3 scores in like SIX GAMES. On top of this most of those pts were on their secondary. (Sound familiar?) One of our best offensive outputs was vs. a team notorious for slow starts PLUS a mostly craptastic secondary.
On top of this you have to take into account one of our starting WR's was out as well as our all world HB.
And STILL we put pts up in that game.
3) Luck is not as good as he played vs. our D.
Smith is not as good as he played vs. their D.
We both were what we indicated we were weeks before...
